    roters help!!! 99 audi A6 2.8 quattro sedan

    Hi! folks! first of all allow me to thank all of you who imakes this forum a true treasure troll of information!!!

    I am updating the wheels of my 1999 Audi A6 2.8 Quattro sedan. I am buying a set of 19'' rims and I am unsure as to what size rotors to buy. I am currently under the impression that once you fit 19'' wheels then the roters size must also change. The link below is a great selection of roters....

    I am seeking advice!!!! thanks in advance!!!

    Perhaps your impression comes from the posts that discuss how tiny factory rotors look under 19s?

    you only need to be concerned if you were in the reverse situation - putting on larger rotors/calipers and keeping the same, smaller wheels.

    As long as the offset is correct and the wheel design (spokes/etc) don't 'bend in' quickly to where they might hit the caliper, you should be fine.
